Alan Jackson is a man of few words and little outward emotion, but the country icon admits that he about teared up when he first heard the rough mix of A Man Who Never Cries, one of the songs on his new album,
Where Have You Gone.
Jackson was in his truck when his producer, Keith Steagall, sent him the rough mix, so he took a listen right then and there.
“It was just me singing with the players,” Jackson tells

“She sent me this nice little gift and this note, and she said she went home to Georgia and played her daddy the cut. He was sitting there in the kitchen and he doesn’t say much about all her career stuff, but she said when she played him that cut, he just lit up and she saw some tears from a man who never cries,” Jackson tells
